Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for October 07, 2022

Oh my gosh!

You know, I wouldn’t mind Miranda if she was used for something more funny, creative, or original. And this is another example of her not being used in any of those ways. I mean, how many times have we seen the “Look over there!” distraction tactic? A million times. That’s how many.

The element of surprise is indeed surprising!

Aoki uses that technique in his boxing in Hajime no Ippo. He calls it “The Look Away”. Almost won him a national title match.

Miranda finally beats them up, but the joke isnt good.

5/10

I feel like she could’ve done about the same regardless of whether they were looking at her. But it’s probably more about proving her point.

Miranda’s teaching them basic playground tricks.

4/10 Miranda has a point, but the way she did it was pretty lame.

Let’s hope Chester will save them from that lil monster.

Mirada finally did something. Although the joke was not that great. 4/10 Kind of a lame arc.

This is honestly sad. Why cant Nate hit the gym for once?

Time to call a doctor

Wow, Nate can’t catch a break, can he?

No brains, no brawn… what DO they have?

First lesson learned…..

“And if anyone ever attacks you with a raspberry, just pull the lever and the 16-ton weight will fall on top of him.”

Teddy is dead

Interesting that their knees are bending the right way. After the hype she built up I would have expected them to be bending the wrong way.

Where is Chad?! :(

Much more Upfront than: “Look! Behind You!!!” … :)

What Nate design is your favorite? The first design, the one where their faces are shorter, or the one now?

She is the young female John Kresse!!

We call that a sucker punch and it is frowned on.

I think they are both really coll and peter is smart but maranda is Mean i guess

The “10 seconds later” is kinda r/comedyhomicide

I dont like cobra kai

….like he way Marty McFly duped Biff in the first movie: “Heeeeey Biff! Look! Look !!” POW!!……..

Children trained in hand to hand combat scare me.

I think Teddy’s dead in the last panel. 7.5/10

Almost as tough as me!

first one to find a big nate comic strip with out a comment

Teddy last panel SIGH
